How to work it out

  1. Divide the part by the whole: 1000 ÷ 850 = 1.176471
  2. Multiply by 100: 1.176471 × 100 = 117.6471%
  3. Check: Work backwards: 117.6471% of 850 is 1.176471 × 850 = 1000.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 1000/850 = p/100, so p = 1000 × 100 ÷ 850 = 117.6471%. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =1000/850*100. Dividing the wrong way round (whole ÷ part) gives a different answer. The number after “of” is always the whole, so it goes on the bottom.

What the result means

1000 is more than the whole amount (1.176 times as much) of 850. 1000 goes past 850 by 150, which is another 17.6471% on top of the whole.

Targets: selling 1000 items against a target of 850 means reaching 117.6471% of the target, beating it by 17.6471%.

Turning it around

If you know that 1000 is 117.6471% of a number, you can get that number back: 1000 ÷ 1.176471 = 850. And 850 as a percentage of 1000 is 85%, a different answer, because the whole has changed.
